R0004 is what I needed to know. That is good for testing pH up to 10 ppm FC. Great.
Your back up chlorine source is cal hypo. You have very low CH. So you can use cal hypo for a long time. You just need to be sure it is fully dissolved after you add it to the pool. Any granules left on your liner can stain it.
When you get Cal Hypo - be sure it does not have the word Blue in the name. That means it has copper in it. You do not want that. If unsure, post a picture of the product you are buying and post here.
Cal hypo should be available at Walmart, Home Depot, Amazon, etc.
